Chromakopia is the long-awaited and highly anticipated seventh (or eighth, depending on whom you ask) studio album by Tyler, the Creator. The ten days I waited for the album were agonizing but worth it.

Chromakopia’s aesthetic seems to take heavy inspiration from old monster films. Most evident is the sepia filter used in all branding, general darker tone, and the imagery of horns which evokes the devil. A slightly dim green is the album’s branding color.

“Chromakopia” is set in Poleno SemiBold, modified to have horns on the first and last letter. It is complemented by Rift Soft which is used on smaller text, likely to balance the hard, uneven look of Poleno.
